ONE Northern paper at least IS
honest and outspoken about the negro
question-social equality among the
races and how it is regarded North and
South. The Chicago HeraM says {:
The difference between the North
and the South in this regard is here the
negro enjoys perfect equality in theory
and no rquaAy in fat, while at the
South both fact and theory agree III
denying him equality and relegating
him to a sphere by himself. This he
knows and understands, and expects
nothing else. As a consequence the
Northern negro, being actually barred
out of any actual social commerce with
the Northern white, and not being
specially encouraged to improve him
self on his own account and by his
own means, does nothing. He IS an
0utcast and knozos it, At tine South,
on the contrary, he has his own society,
and wishing or expecting no other, he
has improved it and improves himself
in consequence. Northern sentiment
is vitiated by moral color-blindness
which amounts to hypocrisy, that does
no one any good and does the negroes
much harm.

There was time when our young
men would flock from the farms to the
towns and cities in search of lighter
and more lucrative employment, but
since public interest is becoming 50
clearly manifest in agriculture, and
the best talent of the country is being
appropriated to it, and labor-saving
machinery and scientific methods are
being so universally introduced, our
boys are recognizing farming to be a
field for the widest development, and
many who have left them like true
prodigals are returning and are again
cnlisting themselves in the National
necessity" God grant that this may
continue, and His chosen profession
may prosper.-Reidsville IPtekJ.

Enterprising, Progressive Durham.
TPittSLOrO Record. !

Durham S growth should be a source
of pride TO all North CarOlinians. No
town in North Carolina has been more
generally known in all parts of the
world than the wonderful town of Dur
ham And a visit to that town will
prove to the skeptiCal reader that Dur
ham well derserves all that has been
said about its growth and energy.
What was a small village, only a few
years ago, is now prosperous town OF
over 1000 inhabitants, with paved
streets, water works, electric lights
and street cars. lis many immense
brick buildings prove the faith Of their
owners in the stability and permanent
Cy of Durham's prosperity. No hand
somer or costlier buildings can be
found anywhere in the State, and
others are now in process of construc-
ton. Although Durham growth
has been 50 rapid, we predict that it
will be still more rapid as soon as the
railroads now in contemplation are
constructed.

IN HIS address before the Inter-
State Farmers Convention at Atlanta,
Mr.. Henry W. Grady said this:
There are 100000 artisans at work
in the South to-day that were not
here in 1880, and this does not in
clude the thousands that are building
new enterprises. We manufactured last
year S2I3, 900 worth of articles
that SIX years ago we bought from the
North or West. In six years following
the cotton exposition of 1873 new
cotton mills have been built in the
South starting 900, 900 new spindles.
The South to-day is witnessing an in
dustrlal revolution for which history
has no precedent. Figures do not
measure it ard amazemnet is simply
limited by comprehension.
These facts show wonderful in
dastrial revolution in the South. Who
is not proud Of this glorious land as a
part of our common country?

 Rev. Washington Gladden. Discusses
 The Subject of Property-The Insur.
 rection of Labor.
 Rev. Washington Gladden., D. D.. 1ectured
 yesterday afternoon in the Marquand chapel
 on Property" The lecture illustrated three
 principles: 1st, Property is communion
 with God through material wealth." It is
 the nature of wealth to be useful; it is a fundamental need necessary to~life, and to
 say that it is hurtful to the soul is an accusa- tion against God. Property interest is not separate from spiritual interest. God is the absolute owner of the material universe and we are his children, and heirs have right to possess it through him. We can have no property in what we obtain through inius- tice. The production of wealth is holy avocation. The holding and use of it in the right spirit is also holy, for all is material for character building and for the bringing of the kingdom of God. So long as we use property rightly we have right to use it. Fortunes well as characters are due in large part to their environment. To society all are indebted. We owe more than we can ever hope to pay. Whoever holds property holds it subject to equitable claim. The or ganization of labor and the mechanism of labor are products of social forces and prop erty must be used if used rightly to promote the intelligence, the happiness and virtue of the whole people. This brings to the sec ond principle-property is fellowship with man through material wealth.
 Lastly, property is power. Consumption as we'll as production is an exercise of power | Money or wealth has power over one's own life and over the lives of those in whose hands he places it. The demand for com modities sets men at work to produce them Mir. Gladden. will lecture on Thursday up- on "The insurrection of labor"

 The condition of the sidewalks in Fair Haven is simply alarming and it is a wonder that some serious accident has not been re. ported.

 The Washington express from New York via Harlem River, due at 2:15 a. m., when approaching the railroad bridge at Westport yesterday morning, struck man who was walking on the track near the west end of the bridge. Night Watchman McCann warned the man not to proceed, the train was approaching, but no heed was giv- en. A few minutes later the train reached the spot, struck the man, dragged him some one hundred feet to the end of the draw, where he fell to the ground below. MT. McCann obtained help and had the injured man taken to the depot baggage room. pr. M B. Pardee, of South Norwalk, pronounced the mans injuries serious and probably fa- tai.

Copied from a Portrait 23O Years Old.
 When Elihu Yale founded that time hon. ored institution of learning, Yale College, he struck blow at ignorance that has rever- berated for more than two centuries through out the length and breadth of the land, and placed his name in the foremost rank of Americas public benefactors. But greater scourge than ignorance is now running rampant in our midst. Do you know what ails you when you have dull headache no appetite; nothing tastes good that you eat; speclks pass before your eyes; low spirits; an irritable and peevish temper; bowels con- stipated; an appearance of red or white brick dust in the urine; tired feeling and don't know what ails you? You have fallen a victim to that modern scourge, Malaria. Nothing on this earth will tone you up so quickly and arrest the progress of Malaria as Lewis Red Jacket Bitters, the only sure cure for Dumb Ague, Chills and Fever, and all forms of Malaria Don't wait till you are on your back but begin at once the use of Lewis Red Jacket BitteTs.
